This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Can anyone help me fill out the technical standards form? Is this something that needs to be printed, hand filled out, then scanned and emailed?

I just filled out the form that was in the acceptance mail(by hand), took a picture with my phone and sent them by email. I received my login info to nucleus few days later.. and I hope this is all we had to do?

I'm a current student here so I can answer your question. Every year, the previous class creates a google drive with all of the books and resources you will need to get through first year. If you are a person who uses hard copies, I would suggest buying them from upperclassmen. If you are accepted and added to the Facebook page, you will be able to contact upperclassmen there, but I could also add you to another group that is solely for selling stuff if you are accepted!

Yep I have already been accepted and I'd love to take a look at the group. Id probably want hard copies of everything unfortunately lol. I am not sure if they have done the official Facebook yet, or I'm just not on it yet!
 
I am an accepted student. Can anyone provide a link to the group facebook page?

Completed since August 29th and still haven't heard. Is this a silent rejection?
 
So guys, my portal changed to include this:

Thank you for your interest in PCOM! Below are important details regarding your application for admission. The grid below summarizes your application including notification of required items received/processed by the Office of Admissions to date.
  • Please note, due to volume, that it takes at least 15 business days for items received by the Office of Admissions to be processed to an application for admission.

I remember someone saying that when they got accepted, they had instructions to submit the deposit via the portal so I can only assume this is a WL/Rejection? Would be a bummer mostly because I thought I rocked the interview, and honestly am not even sure on how to improve from there.

Edit: Yup, seems like other accepted students have gotten the exact same message except that they got the link to put down the deposit. Can anyone else confirm this for me please?

Thanks for the concern! I guess I just wish I knew whether or not what I did for that interview worked or not and to either emulate that performance, or change it up for my next big interview coming up Monday morning. I know, first world problem lol. It's all about dem interviewing gains.

Someone on the Philly pcom had same message and suspected their portal was messing up. They ended up accepted but not sure if that had anything to do with it. It was probably just the portal messing up honestly, but hopefully its an early sign for good news :).

Just wait for the decision letter. There is no point in checking the portal every five minutes.

So is there just one person accepted from this group or is everyone being humble?

I am in the same boat. I'm trying really hard not to self destruct before I am sure everyone has received a decision.

Im sure not everyones portal changed at the same time. Mine didnt change till around 4pm a few weeks ago.. I think for sanity reasons, future students should focus on the letters and not the portal! Good luck to everyone.
